Cheers.
I have never seen PZ recently for TPE-SFO-TPE. Even PN is rare.

My original flight SFO-TPE would not even clear for GS as I was No.3 and J was full. I had to change to SFO-SIN Premium Plus to get my upgrade which costs 30 PP instead of 40.

For today's flight TPE-SFO I did get upgrade cleared few days ago. There are about 35 people on WL, and J is full now.
